AnUelenOa Abroad.

The good people of Phoenix, Arizona,
are quick to recognize a public spirited
man and especially Los Angeles man.
Phoenix and Los Angeles have always
been very friendly, and the following
notices from the Herald April %, of
that city. concerning our esteemed fel
low-citizen, j. De Barth Shorb, are very
pleasant and apr eciative: 'The Hon.
j. De Barth Shorb. of San Gabriel, CAL,
accompanied by his son, arrived in this
city yesterday. Mr.. Shorb is one of the
ablest mer in the Democratic party and
one who has never sought office. His
public life has been devoted largely to
the development of the magnificent re.
sources of Southern California, in which
he has been eminently successful. His
orchards, vineyards and winery are
among the largest and best in the State.
He has been active in promoting irriga.
ton and to him may be attributed large.
ly the order and efficiency that has been
evolved from the chaos of conflicting
systems-or rather lack of system. His
first impressions of this valley are decid.
edly favorable and it is hoped that they
may be strengthened the more he exam.
ines into it's resources. He has rooms
at Hotel Lemon.
w. j. Murphy, accompanied q by Hon..
DeBarth ohorb and son, f. q. Story and
j. Harbert, went to the head of the
Arizona canal this morning and will re-
turn by way of Mesa City and Tempe
Mr.. Shorb is desirous of seeing some of
the wine products of the valley, that he
may Judge of the future of this country
as a wine producer. He has expressed
an opinion that it will grow grapes par
ticularly adapted to the manufacture of

is not land enough to fill the demand"

INHUMAN PARENTS.
Mr.. and Mrs. COWles ConvActo~
of Cruelty to Children.

of Cruelty to children.
The charge of cruelty to children
against Mr.. and Mrs. Cowles was fully
ventilated before Justice Austin yester-
day, and they were convicted and will
be sentenced on Friday. 1t is to be
hoped that the Justice will take into
full cognizance the atrocious cruelty
which they practiced towards helpless
infants, and mete out to them the full
punishment allowed by the law, for GER
tainly case of more horrible treatment
by parents of their young never came
to light in this community. These par.
ents, according to the testimony, lived
on Alameda street, near New Main, in a
couple of rooms which were kept in
such state of nl,biaess as TO turn those
who visited them sick at the stomach
Here Mr.. and Mrs. Cowles and three
children lived. The parents were sell
dom sober, and Mrs. Cowles lived in
open adultery, with the apparent
consent of her husband, with
Frank Ayers, whom she admits is the
father of the youngest baby. This baby,
which is scarcely over two months old,
is in condition too horrible to picture
in words. When found, after the fracas
of Monday night. it was wrapped in
clothes so filthy that no person, with re-
gard to health, would care to touch.
Vermin crawled all over them and the
child, when relieved of them, was
living mass of sores. 1t was apparently
in q starving condi tion. and was
scarcely more than skin and bones. SO
thin was its neck that it was almost
transparent. The two older children,
aged and 7, were also tilthily dressed
and had been much neglected. There
were no bedclothes in the room, and
the only table furniture was dirty cup
and saucer. Justice Austin, after hear
ing the testimony. found the parents
guilty as charged and will sentence them
on Friday. The two elder children
were sent to the Orphans Home and the
baby is being doctored, but it is hardly
probable that it will live. Seldom has
case come to light which has excited so
much Indignation among the people
who have investigated it and who gener.
ally take generous interest in neglected
waits.

A Terrible Ordeal.
A COMPLETE STORY.

There died lately, in an insane asylum
at Buda Pesth, Hungary. an old man
named Ference Renyi, who had lived in
this asylum for thrty-six years. The
story of the loss of his reason is one of
fare has produced. In l848, Renyi was
young schoolmaster in Hungarian vii
lage. He was loved by all the people of the
village, as well as by his pupils, and was
betrothed to a lovely Young girl. When
the Hungarian Parliament in that year de-
clared the independence of the nation.
Gerencz Renyi enrolled his name upon the
| list of volunteers and went to the war.
After battle in which he had fought like
a lion, he was taken prisoner and con-
Quoted before the Austrian General,
Haynau, whose name had become a
synonym for ferocity.
Where is the mass of the Hungarian
ArmyP" Haynau asked.
| Reyni refused to speak Haynau was
not to be banked. Having learned that
the Hungarian prisoner was known to
belong in a neighboring village, he had
the young soldiers mother and sister
before him.
You shall tell me what ! want to
know" said the Austrian general to
Renyi. ''or these women shall be put to
death"
Renyi remained silent, but he shuddered
| from head to foot, and the tears mounted
| to his eyes.
''Don't speak, my boy!' his mother
exclaimed. DO your duty, and do not
think of me, for my lite is almost over"
And mis- sister said:
| "lf you betray your country, our name
viii be covered with shame, and what
would become of me thenp Don't speak
die bravely"
Renyi did not speak, and within q few
minutes the two women was shot by a file
OF soldiers.
| One more test remained, and Haynau
FASTENED to apply it. He had the young
woman to whom Renyi was betrothed
brought to camp. and the two
were taken before him. The girl was
afraid to die, and begged her lover on her
knees to give the information which the
general demanded
Speak, Ference" she cried s'See,
am young; love you-don't let me die
You will save both of our lives if you
speak. And when we are free we will 90
away, a long distance from here, and be
happy. Oh, save me save me,
The girl clutched at Renyi's hands wit
desperation. He was shaken with violent
sobs, but he pushed her away and re-
manned silent. She was led away by the
soldiers, screaming as she went.
Curse YOU, Ference! 1t is you who
send me to my death--it is you who are
my murderer!''
Renyi was silent; but when the dread.
full scene was over and he was taken to
prison his guards perceived that he had
lest his reason. Satisfying himself that
Renyi was hopelessly insane. Haynau
carried his series of atrocities no further,
and the young mans life was spared
When Hungary had been crushed and
the war was over place was found fol-
Renyi in the insane asylum at Buda- Pesth
where his sad life was at last brought tc
an end.

Romance Of the Mines.
THE EARLY DAYS OF Mrs. MACKEY AM
THE PRESENT PRINCESS COLONNE.

This is indeed peculiar world" said
mining expert at the Planters House
yesterday. "Here pick up the papers
and read of Mrs Mackay's doings in Paris
how she receives the scions OF royalty.
how she entertains, how she appears at
the opera, how she dresses, and how she
does thousand things; and then | can
scarcely conceive that eighteen years ago
she kept boarding housein Virginia City
ard that was one of her boarders. Yet
it is true, and often ponder over it. She
was voting widow with an interesting
child who has since matured into young
lady and was recently married to an Ital-
ian Prince OF some kind. That little girl
has often sat on my knee with little tin
can in her hand which contained the con-
tributions of her admirers. In those days
we lived principally on canned food and
Mrs. Mackav's backward was paved with
tin cans. The child had selected very
pretty can. which one of the boarders
transformed into little bank. This was
partly filled with coin, the result of a
tribute which she levied on her friends.
She would climb on the boarders' knees,
and. shaking her little bank, would say !:
is you lucky to-day" This query had
the desired effect. and the bank receipts
were Increased. Even in her DAYS of dis.
tress Mrs Mackay was good woman.
She personally superintendent affairs and
made her boarders as comfortable as pos
sble. was then superintendent under
Fair, and Mackay was already million
aire. Mining stock was the rage then and
remember often how she would come TO
me and some of the other boarders and
ask our advice about certain stocks, and |
am happy to say that the advice l gave
her was good. and if had taken it myself
would now be S5,O00,000 or 5000, COO
better off than am.

sailing. He couldn't win on his shape nor
his beauty, for everybody who has seen

SNOW.
By r. 4. BARTON.

There's snow on the plain and snow the hill side
Laid up in drifted, fantastic heaps;
The fire is glowing, without 1t lie showing,
Before the chill blasts the light flakes leap.
At the WINDOW pane they tap for admittance,
With the measured beat of rythmic rhyme,
Playing melody OF frozen music,
AS to the moan of the wind keeping time.
Crystallized dew from out of the skies,
Unfolding the earth in mantle bright,
Hiding the ruin of autumnal frosts
With a bridal veil OF purest white.
Hurrying, scurrying, prancing, dancing,
Hither and thither. wild with glee,
Eager to adorn with your jewelled robes
10th field of brown and leafiess tree.
Perhaps you are down from angels wings,
" afted from the spirits above
Az bright tokens from those gone before,
That they still remember and love;
Or gems from an gelic diadems,
AS a pledge of what we'll receive
If we keep pure the spotless snow
And in Him trust and believe.
When in a whisper the gentle south wind
Bids you return as vapory mist.
Take back a MT ssage from storm beaten earth,
" HON you have 80 daintily kissed.
Tell them If there were no other bond
To connect the earth with the skies,
That wen place our hopes in your crystal ropes,
And by these to our home we will rise.

The New Men Getting the Steamers Out
of New York on Time.
New YORK, February 4.-There was
slight improvement in the condition OF
affairs on the river fronts this morning.
The steamship companies are moving
freight with more dispatch than on any
of the past four or five days. The steam
ers are being got away on their regular
sailing DAYS, and the freight lines are
once more receiving and delivering goods.
In most cases the work on the steamer
piers is being done by green men, ana on
The freight lines by the deck hands OF the
freight boats. The Ward line steamer
Cie1fuegos sailed with afull cargo slowed
away by green hands. 1t is not consld-
cred that there will be any danger to the
vessel arising from the shifting OF the
cargo as she strikes the heavy breakers
off Hatteras, as the work was done under
superyision of the old foreman. The
steamer Niagara Is being loaded to-day
and will be ready to sail on time to-moT-
row. There are about twenty ola handS
at work on this dock. They were gwen
the advance of forty cents Tor day WORK
and sixty cents for night work
